New Poster for 'The Awakening'

We just got a new trailer (Rebecca Hall and Dominic West capture the mood nicely), here's the new poster, which is simply an evolutionary step, but I like the added tagline: All the children are gone -- Except one.

A very nice popcorn rental.

High Squirm Factor Trailer for 'Compliance'

Yeah, I know. But, just when you think you have a handle on this story...check this out. From IMDb:

• When a prank caller convinces a fast food restaurant manager to interrogate an innocent young employee, no-one is left unharmed. Based on true events. 

This from the movie's Wikipedia page:

• Compliance is a 2012 American drama film written and directed by Craig Zobel, and starring Ann Dowd, Dreama Walker, and Pat Healy. The plot focuses on a prank caller who pretends to be a police officer and convinces the manager of a fast food restaurant that one of her employees committed a crime. It is based on the Strip Search Prank Call Scam.

From the Wiki page at the last link:

• The McDonald's strip search scam was a series of incidents occurring for roughly a decade before an arrest was made in 2004. These incidents involved a man calling a restaurant or grocery store, claiming to be a police detective, and convincing managers to conduct strip searches of female employees or perform other unusual acts on behalf of the police. The calls were usually placed to fast-food restaurants in small rural towns.

• Over 70 such occurrences were reported in 30 U.S. states, until an incident in 2004 in Mount Washington, Kentucky finally led to the arrest and charging of David Stewart, a 37-year-old employee of Corrections Corporation of America, a private-commercial firm contracted by several states to provide corrections officers at private detention facilities. On October 31, 2006, he was acquitted of all charges.^[1][2] These incidents were the inspiration behind an episode of Law & Order: SVU featuring Robin Williams as the scammer, and Monica Raymund as the victim, and an award-winning short film Plainview which played the festival circuit in 2007/2008. In 2012 a film by Craig Zobel entitled Compliance, premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and is also based on these events.^[3]

I just realized -- don't know why I hadn't noticed -- at :55, that's Franco Nero with Jamie Foxx. Nero played Django in Sergio Corbucci's 1966 'Django'.
